10 Sacred & Religious Sites in Stockholm That You Shouldn't Miss
The capital city of Sweden combines modern attractions with historic charm. Kick off your stay with visits to Stockholm’s two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Royal Palace Drottningholm (the residence of the royal family) and the magical Skogskyrkogården, or Woodland Cemetery. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Town and over the picturesque bridges that span the city’s canals. The 19th-century Skansen was the world’s first open-air museum and is still a premier place to learn about Swedish history.

Dating back to the 13th century, this church has a distinct character and history. It is the oldest in the Old Town and is home to several relics as well as an impressive statue of Saint George fighting the Dragon. Storkyrkan can pique almost anyone's curiosity, not just the history buff's.

Visited this beautiful Cathedral and loved it although I would have liked to have spent more time. There is an entrance fee of 60 Kroner which goes towards the maintenance of the church. There is a toilet inside! In this Cathedral you will find the seven branched candlestick, the last judgement painting (1696), st George and the Dragon (carved out of oak 1489), the candle globe, the silver altar, the royal pews (1684), the pulpit (1700) the parhelion painting (1535) and the amazing Organ where the facade was made in 1789. This church (st Nicholas) was first mentioned in 1279. As you can see, I loved this visit.

We visited Stockholm by chance when my husband was sent there at the end of our French vacation Fall of 2019. He had a day and a half to tour around. This cathedral was one of the places we visited. There was a free concert on this day, and that is always interesting to me to hear the organ and voices in different cathedrals in the world. I am an artist, so sat drawing during the concert. It was a wonderful experience, and many interesting things to see as one walked around in the space.
